Angels and heavenly beings are not the same thing.
If angels are powerful warriors who swear to serve the gods, the Celestials are more like the heavens - or the many residents of the upper world. Some of them are "promoted" by good people or heroes after death, while others are
They were born in heaven at the beginning. No matter which kind, they all have a long life, a pleasant life, and an innate yearning for kindness and beauty.
Of course, many Celestials have powers that far exceed those of mortals, and they voluntarily serve a certain good god, or constantly fight against evil. For them, that is the duty and honor that they should pursue as Celestials.
But Lily couldn't figure out why there was a Celestial being willing to serve that "Count Stark" - if he wasn't being controlled or deceived.
There was no time for her to continue thinking, because the "enemy"'s sharp blade was already coming towards her.
She folded her strong wings and used them as a shield to face the falling giant sword. What followed was a tearing pain. The flying dragon wings, which could withstand ordinary swords, were easily cut open by the opponent, which was nearly a meter long.
Wounds. Not only that, a strong electric current quickly crawled through her body along her wings, causing the female mercenary's entire body to become numb.
This made Lily completely put away her contempt and intention to convince the other party. She jumped back hard, returned to her human form in the air, and at the same time took off a "dagger" hanging from her waist.
The "dagger" quickly stretched and widened from the moment it was taken off. Within two seconds, it grew to the same size as the obsidian giant sword Lily originally used. But it was no longer completely black, and the broad silver-white sword body seemed to
Glittering with countless stars - it was a precious alloy unique to the Elna people, light but extremely strong. Feist gave it to her as a gift, and this was the first time she used this giant sword.
She has never neglected the fighting skills she has been practicing. The form of the giant wolf is powerful, but on this platform with a small space, it is more suitable to fight as a human body.
The Celestial Clan not far away raised her left hand again, but this time, Lily did not allow the other party to do so easily. She pounced forward like a leopard, and the giant sword struck down with sharp wind, forcing the other party to give up casting spells and raise the sword with both hands to parry.
This blow.
The two huge swords, both of extraordinary quality, collided and made a crisp but not harsh sound. Lily was unable to take advantage of this blow, and the strength of the Celestial Clan was not inferior to hers.
She used the force of the collision to retract the giant sword, swung it in a semicircle, and swept the opponent's lower limbs. However, the sword still failed to achieve success. The opponent's swordsmanship was also very experienced and skillful, and she even felt as if she was fighting with Barak.
the illusion.
No - the other party is not as good as Barak. Although the level of swordsmanship is not low, this Celestial Clan does not have the arrogance of "that man". And for now, the most important thing is that she is not alone.
Bell and Elliot finally recovered from the initial electric shock and began to attack the opponent in front of her together. Alphonse carefully applied the protective secret technique to everyone to avoid the situation not long ago happening again.
The situation quickly became favorable to Lily's side. It was quite difficult to fight one against four, not to mention that the four people in front of them were all outstanding warriors. Wounds began to appear on the Celestial Clan's body, and a small amount of silver-white was stained on the colorful hair.
Bloodstains - that was proof of her pure bloodline.
Lily has not forgotten that their purpose is to "take the other party away from here", not to kill them on the spot. She does not fully believe the "curse" that An said, but the identity of the other party and the events before the battle
This declaration had successfully aroused her curiosity.
"Bell, Elio, execute Plan 1!" she shouted loudly.
"Okay, Captain Lily!" Elio replied excitedly, "Bell, my left side and my right side belong to you!"
Lily stepped forward and swung two swords with all her strength. The Celestial Clan on the opposite side once again raised their swords to meet them. Immediately after, Elio and Bell rushed forward from left to right, dropped their weapons, and hugged each other.
of an arm.
The Tian tribe obviously did not expect such an "attack". She was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered how to fight back - the electric light flashed on her body, and quickly enveloped the two people who were holding her arms. Unfortunately, Alphonse had already
If people have sufficient protection, this level of electric shock will not have any effect.
"Get ready—we're coming!"
Lily - or the flying dragon transformed by Lily glided close to the ground, roughly threw the three people on the back, then grabbed the machine man in one mouth, and before the Celestial Clan, or even everyone else, could react, he threw a
Plunge into the sea of clouds beneath your feet.
"Wait a minute, Boss Lily!" Elio shouted in panic, "We will be shocked if we do this - eh?"
He blinked his eyes and shook his head, as if he was a little puzzled that he was not struck by lightning.
In fact, the moment Lily took the Celestial Clan off the platform, the surrounding environment began to change.
The magic power in the clouds quickly spread to the surroundings, triggering a series of continuous but insignificant electrical discharges. The thunder that originally spread under the clouds also quickly stopped, allowing the mountains to return to their proper tranquility.
In addition, there is another "person" that has changed - that is, the female Celestial Being who serves as the "core" existence. After leaving the platform, her sharp-edged aura quickly melted away, leaving only a slight confusion in the calmness.
"Hey...why am I here?" She looked around, raised her hand and knocked on Lily's back, "Who are you?"
"You are controlled by a guy named Huruman Stark." Lily spread her wings and glided, saying without looking back, "He turned the forest into this state and brought you to that cliff.
On the wall, I asked you to guard his evil achievements." She lowered her head and looked at the two people waiting for their return in the forest, and added half seriously, "If it weren't for An's suggestion, maybe... we would
Have you already been killed?"
Tian Clan responded softly, as if she was sorting out her thoughts. But what she said next was completely beyond the expectations of Lily and everyone else.
"Ah, I remembered." She said gently, "I voluntarily assisted Lord Stark in order to realize his "ideal". It is also my own choice to help him protect this cliff."
"What did you say?" Lily took a breath and asked in disbelief, "You... volunteered to help Huruman Stark, that bastard?"
The female Celestial clan shook her head.
"This place has a bit more evil atmosphere than what I first saw. Maybe some changes that I don't know have happened during this period of time." She said with certainty, "But I can be sure that Lord Stark - at least,
